Air Fryer Chicken Drumsticks offer a crispy, flavorful alternative to traditional fried chicken, without the excess oil. Originating from classic American comfort food, this dish is a versatile favorite across many cuisines. Seasoned with a blend of spices like paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper, the drumsticks are cooked to perfection in an air fryer, providing a golden, crunchy exterior while maintaining juicy tenderness inside. Air frying significantly reduces the fat content compared to deep frying, making it a healthier choice. Chicken drumsticks are a good source of protein, essential for muscle repair and growth; they also provide important vitamins and minerals like B vitamins, zinc, and iron. However, the nutritional profile can be impacted by added salt and heavy coatings, so moderation is key. Pairing with lighter sides like steamed veggies or a fresh salad can balance this wholesome dish.
